Unbelievable - an oasis in a buzzing metropolis.
We couldn’t believe our eyes when we walked through the gate from the dusty lane off the main road laden with cars, trucks, buses, taxis all tooting for some reason or another. One step through the gate into paradise - a garden of Eden - trees, water features, ducks, dogs, peacocks, wooden villas, a natural silence. Our villa, completely separate, consisted of a huge patio with a good-size table and seating, a bedroom with aircon and three opening windows, a living room with a table and seat, fridge and more; and, a bathroom with shower, basin and toilet.
The location, which is in a safe and reasonably wealthy neighbourhood, is within walking distance to taxis on the main road, local food stalls and a short taxi ride to the BTS station that takes you almost anywhere you want to go in Bangkok.
And it’s best feature is that it is Thai style. The perfect accommodation for those who want to immerse themselves in the local culture. This is not the place to stay if you want to stay in a hotel that you could find anywhere in the world.
